The Lawmaker Representing Aniocha/Oshimili
Federal Constituency under the Labour Party in Delta State, Hon. Ngozi Okolie
has defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC)
Briefing journalists in Asaba, Delta State
capital, the Lawmaker said his defection from the Labour Party was as a result
of the party state at the national level.
The Hon Okolie emphasized that staying in a
party that is not United and organized would not enable him to make the
necessary progress
He said that his resignation from the Labour Party
would enable him to attract all the needed projects to his community and
constituency.
A lot of people are resigning from their party and
moving out to APC, and today I decide to resign from the Labour Party, he
added.
” My resignation from the Labour Party would enable me
to attract a lot of progress and projects to my constituency, and to inform you
that I am no longer a member of the Labour Party”.
“So, staying in a party that is not organized would
actually not make me progress in the National Assembly, so, I felt that if I
resigned from the Labour Party and probably seek for another party that will
help me at least attract projects to my community and constituency”.
“ I am approaching the APC and you know the
traditional rulers in Delta state have endorsed the President, the state
Governor has moved to APC, the PDP have moved to APC, I think it would be to
the advantage of my constituency to actually join them too”
I have discussed with a lot of traditional rulers and
also with my constituency and in my two years remaining , I think it will be
best to join the APC for the interest of my people, Okolie stated
The Federal Lawmaker also disclosed that he had
consulted the state Governor before his defection from the Labour Party to the
ruling All Progressive Congress APC.
